Titanium Fasteners Tailored for the M06 Chassis

The Tamiya 54271 Titanium Screw Set is a compact upgrade aimed at reducing mass on the M06 platform. Swapping in titanium screws cuts down weight by about 20 grams, refining balance and steering precision.

What the Kit Includes

The set comprises 84 screws in a variety of lengths to match the M06 chassis layout. The selection addresses the most commonly used screw sizes during builds and repairs:

3x6mm screws: 2 pieces
3x8mm screws: 7 pieces
3x10mm screws: 42 pieces
3x12mm screws: 13 pieces
3x15mm screws: 10 pieces
3x18mm screws: 2 pieces
3x25mm screw: 1 piece
3x8mm hex screws: 2 pieces
3x10mm hex screws: 3 pieces
3x12mm hex screws: 2 pieces

How much of a performance difference will I notice after fitting these screws?

Expect subtle improvements rather than dramatic changes; the roughly 20 gram saving helps chassis rotation and can make the car feel livelier in transitions.

Are the counts and lengths sufficient for a full M06 rebuild?

With 84 screws across the listed lengths, the kit covers most of the common fastenings on the M06, though check specialised areas before a full strip down.

Can I mix titanium and steel screws in one car?

Yes, many builders use titanium for weight-critical points and retain steel for places where magnetic or conductive properties are needed.

Is threadlocker recommended with these screws?

Use a mild threadlocker on vibrating joints to prevent loosening, but avoid heavy grades that make future maintenance difficult.

Will the head types match OEM screw heads for easy swap?

The set includes both standard and hex head screws in common lengths to mirror OEM head styles for straightforward replacement.
